I do not think that anyone is suggesting that.

There's really no song on which she is
un-amped. At least not any of
her songs. She is pulling out all the stops on her parts of the show. Not holding back to let him shine. Of course, she's deliberately singing softly and not trying to upstage him on Lindsey's own songs like
NGBA or
ISA, but by the same token, he is sitting back in the shadows and playing the guitar unobtrusively on
SB, Rhiannon, etc. and not crowding her spotlight.
He's not trying to steal the spotlight from her during her songs like he may have done in the past (i.e. Rhiannon) and she is not trying to steal the spotlight from him on his songs, like she used to do back then, particularly during
GYOW which, as recently as 1990 she was still trying to do (BTM cameo).
They are both respecting each other. That's all. She's not holding back so he can shine any more than he is holding back on her show stoppers. I really don't see any martyr moment where she could break out and put him to shame, but refrains from doing so to soothe his ego.
I see her shows and I see Fleetwood Mac shows and there's nothing she has done during a solo show that would steal the spotlight from Lindsey if she decided to unleash her amped up fury during a Fleetwood Mac show.
